  All you need to do is install and activate the JetPack plugin. Then Staff will be able to transfer your email subscribers for you. Followers using the WordPress.com Reader cannot be transferred.

  Hello, I have moved to self-hosted wordpress (site is htp://www.inadifferentvoice.co.uk ) and don’t want to lose my followers from http://www.inadifferentvoice.wordpress.com – is this the right place to ask? Many Thanks
